It is unknown how many primitive creatures live in the vast ocean that almost submerges the entire planet.

No one knows how many of these entities, composed of a combination of metal and organisms, have evolved into astonishingly large sizes and strange structures.

The appearance of Poseidon is a miracle.

Before this, no one had ever imagined that such a huge organism could exist on Earth.

Chemical research on paleontology thousands of years ago led the biological community to unanimously agree that the largest creature in history was the long-extinct giant dinosaur, which was larger and heavier than a blue whale, and its tibia alone was more than two meters long.

But the sea kings are even bigger than that.

A body length of 100 meters is nothing but a burden for them. The sea water holds up their heavy bodies, and a flick of their tails is enough to create huge waves. They can fight against the most advanced fleets on their own, and it is even difficult for humans to find a way to compete with them.

They don't look like creatures that should exist on Earth at all, and are more suitable to appear in monster movies.

And now, a sea emperor is approaching the ice cave.

Its appearance caused the primitive creatures to panic and they instinctively fled in all directions. Even the primitive creatures that had been captured and were being transported on the conveyor belt began to jump in fear.

Moonlight stood up. She stared at the cave entrance where the undercurrent was surging. The data stream was transmitted through the beacon's lines, conducting a final equipment check.

Everything is ready.

The moment the head emerged, the waves it created rose to a height of more than 30 meters and easily hit the top of the facility.

The cold sea water splashed down, soaking everything.

Hei Bo's vision was blocked by the water curtain, and in the blur, a silver-white figure attacked the entire facility like a giant lightning bolt that struck from the sky ten thousand meters high.

It's just like the legendary dragon!

Moonlight raised her hand.

With just a slight swing, three hundred steel rods with sharp ends were launched!

They shot out at a speed of 800 meters per second, and in a flash, pierced through the metal scales of the Poseidon and nailed its raised head to the wall.

Scream.

Each of the steel rods was fifteen meters long and half a person's thickness, with chains attached to the end. The collision of three hundred chains was like an ancient magic circle, pulling the hundreds-meter-long head of the Sea King!

In severe pain, the body and tail still in the water slapped the ice cover frantically, almost opening the entire permafrost layer. The foundation of the building was shaking, and it seemed that it would collapse in the next second.

What was splashing was not only sea water, but also blood.

The whole world became blurred, floods, earthquakes, hunting... In the apocalyptic chaos, Moonlight and Heibo stood in the control room, controlling everything.

A silver-white body swung towards me, getting bigger and bigger, and I could even see the growth lines on the metal scales.

Finally, the entire field of vision was occupied and suddenly went dark.

…

Chen Nian's consciousness rose and fell in the darkness, as if he was immersed in sea water, but the surroundings did not give him a cold feeling.

He didn't know what form he existed in at this moment. The neural adapter pulled his consciousness into the past, and what he saw before his eyes should be what really happened in the moonlight more than ten years ago.

Moonlight and Heibo used special means to capture a large number of primordial creatures and the sea king Jemengader.

They captured not only these, but also Midgard, Maxene, and countless large primordial creatures.

Most of them turned into white bones in the outer area, and Chen Nian finally understood why the original blue whale named Milo in the Electric Fantasy Kingdom would rather die than not reach the inner part of the moonlight.

That was the beacon that lured it.

But Moonlight's ultimate target is not these primitive creatures, but the more advanced, powerful and deadly Poseidon.

There are secrets hidden in their bodies, which make them immune to Ashes and make the seas where they live rarely infected.

Whoosh—whoosh—whoosh—

The heavy breathing was slow and long, right next to my ear.

According to legend, there is a mythical beast called the Candle Dragon. When it opens its eyes, it represents day, and when it closes its eyes, it represents night. If the Candle Dragon really existed, it would probably look like this.

Chen Nian smelled blood and the scent of marine life.

After being taken out of the water, they are more or less no longer "fresh" and smell like a dirty seafood market.

The silvery-white sea snake was crawling on the ground, its ten-thousand-meter-long body coiled like a mountain, occupying the facilities. A pipe as thick as a person pierced through the gap in its scales, penetrated its flesh, and connected to its bones.

Like Midgard, it is also being extracted for its marrow.

But compared to the bull shark Midgard's frantic struggle, Jermyn's shark did not move. It lay there almost without any reaction, allowing its bone marrow and blood to be extracted.

Did you lose your strength?

No, not really.

The cold snake is waiting for its chance to strike.

Chen Nian suddenly felt an urge in his chest, and wanted to reach out and touch the siren-like snake.

But before he could make a move, the scene before his eyes suddenly became bright again.

Countless culture dishes are neatly placed in the laboratory, and the cold white light illuminates the translucent solutions inside.

And the countless fetuses immersed in it.

They are only the size of a palm, flesh-red in color, with faintly visible tiny blood vessels, the outline of the head already visible, and the body naturally curled up.

Where the legs should have developed is a long fish-like tail.

There are transparent webs between their tiny fingers, and the umbilical cord is connected to the top of the culture dish for the exchange of substances.

The blue-skinned creature moved its four soft legs and moved between the culture columns, observing the condition of each fetus and adjusting the composition of the nutrient solution from time to time.

The blue creature is smooth all over, and its body has lost all male and female characteristics, but it still wears clothes out of habit.

Shallow grooves are found on the skin, most densely distributed around the shoulders and neck, and eventually converge across the neck to the face, forming the shape of an eye.

It is the caretaker of the fetuses.

Dozens of surveillance cameras capture every inch of the laboratory. No situation can escape the perception of the beacon. Every link, every step, every piece of data, and every failure in the huge experiment will be recorded.

Become part of the game.

The nursery staff carefully checked the conditions of all the fetuses and entered the indicators at the control console.

More than thirty culture media began to deform, the nutrient solution was discharged through the pipes, and the fetuses were taken out by robotic arms.

All of them had fins and gill sutures intact, and looked more like fish than the other fetuses.

These "failed" fetuses will be ground into high-quality protein ingredients for the growth of their remaining surviving brothers and sisters.

In today's Moonlight, resources are extremely precious.

The empty culture dish has been cleaned and will soon be used to culture the remaining newly added fetuses.

The keeper quickened his pace and headed to the next culture room.

There are a total of 135,714 fetuses that need to be examined today.

The fetuses soaking in nutrient solution have no idea that the nutrients being transported into their bodies through the umbilical cord are substances extracted from other fetuses after being ground up.

They are experiencing the most severe survival of the fittest, and the one who will be selected in the end is the best one.

Is this how he and his brother were brought up?

Even though he had guessed it, Chen Nian still couldn't help but have difficulty breathing when he saw this scene with his own eyes.

There is reproductive isolation between different organisms.

The difference at the genetic level will prevent the two sides from producing normal offspring. Reproductive isolation prevents organisms around the world from using the same gene pool, thus ensuring that when a major catastrophe strikes, there will always be organisms that can adapt and welcome it and survive.

But Moonlight and Black Wave successfully achieved a technological breakthrough.

A life form created by fusing human and Poseidon genes through biological means.

They must have experienced countless failures, and everyone in Eric's shelter is living proof of that.

There were also many fetuses that were destroyed because they looked too much like fish.

Although under current laws, a fetus can only be counted as a person after it is separated from the "mother's body" and breathes independently.

But those tiny embryos, which occasionally move, are indeed alive.

He and Chen Ci are the lucky ones picked out of a million.

The scene twisted and swirled, the energy of the neural adapter was unstable, and soon the scene shifted to another space.

Heibo sat outside the monitoring room, staring closely at the man on the other side of the transparent wall.

Compared to before, the Moonlight Elector's body was covered with more amethysts, and even his skin was broken. The cluster of Ashes at the back of his head made him look almost ten centimeters taller, more like a human-shaped potted plant.

Kong Yu was lying on the ground. If it weren't for the slight rise and fall of his chest, he would have looked like he was dead.

There were rows of needle holes on his arms that had no time to heal. During this period of time, hundreds of substances had been injected into his body, some of which had no effect, some put him in critical condition, and some relieved his condition.

A transparent soft tube was inserted into his head, and the other end of the tube was connected to the umbilical cord of the fetus in the culture column.

The fetus had grown into the appearance of a baby, with black hair and a crescent-shaped birthmark on its left shoulder.

Chen Nian's eyes widened, and he immediately recognized that the fetus was Chen Ci.

It was originally curled up quietly, but as the exchange of substances continued, it woke up from its sleep, waving its hands in the nutrient solution, and its facial features wrinkled.

Seems to feel uncomfortable too.

Yue Guang is paying close attention to the condition of the fetus. Once its life is affected, the experiment will be interrupted.

Hei Bo stared closely at the data on the instrument. Kong Yu's vital signs were rapidly improving, gradually reaching the minimum standard of a normal person from a near-death state.

The crystal that pierced out of his eye socket was melting at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Heibo held his breath. He suppressed the urge to throw himself onto the glass wall and call Kong Yu, but he couldn't help curling his fingers tightly, and his fragile fingertips were almost pierced by the crystals emerging from his wrist bones.

This is a miracle.

"But it alone cannot achieve a comprehensive therapeutic effect. From the current perspective, it can only suppress the disease."

Moonlight said calmly, "The next step is to start making vaccines and vaccinate the uninfected people in Shelters 51 and 52. They will be observed under level 3 risk exposure."

"Let's end it."

Heibo turned his head.

He knew clearly that for every extra minute the connection lasted, Kong Yu's remaining life would be longer.

"We need to ensure the absolute safety of the sample." Moonlight said to him, "From the beginning to the end, a total of four million samples were selected to select this one."

“It’s bigger than any one person.”

Heibo closed his eyes tightly, raised his hand silently, and pressed the stop button on the control panel.

Then darkness fell again.
